CSS George
Page, a 410-ton side-wheel steamship, was built at Washington,
D.C., in 1853 as a U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps transport. She was
captured by Southern forces at Aquia Creek, Virginia, in May 1861
and taken into the Confederate Navy. Possibly renamed City of
Richmond at some point, she was employed on the Potomac River near
Quantico, Virginia. On 7 July 1861 she was damaged by gunfire from
USS Pocahontas. George Page was destroyed to prevent capture on 9
March 1862
